Tehran warns against Israel’s continued breach of Gaza truce
Iran’s Foreign Ministry warned against the continued violation of a US-brokered cease-fire in the Gaza Strip by the Israeli regime.
In a statement on Tuesday night, the ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei condemned recent Israeli attacks that had killed and injured many more Palestinians in the besieged territory.
The killings came days after Hamas and Israel agreed to cease hostilities. Under the 20-point peace plan proposed by the US president, Hamas also released all remaining Israeli captives held in Gaza in exchange for about 2,000 Palestinians held in Israeli prisons.
The deadly attacks underscore the challenges ahead to keeping the cease-fire on track as hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who have been displaced multiple times throughout the war try to return to their homes.
Baghaei urged guarantors of the cease-fire agreement to act against the regime’s ongoing atrocities.
He also denounced the destruction of olive groves, the burning of residential homes, and the desecration of the al-Aqsa Mosque by extremist Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank.
Baghaei called on the guarantors of the ceasefire to hold the Zionist regime accountable and to compel it to halt its ongoing crimes.
The Iranian official warned about the consequences of any inaction by the ceasefire guarantors in the face of the regime’s attacks on Palestinians in Gaza.
According to medical authorities in the Gaza Strip, at least 10 Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli regime since the cease-fire took effect on October 10.
